Chapter Ninety-Three
After browsing through the jewelry stalls, Ji Wanmei had almost used up the maximum amount of goods she had set for herself to purchase.
Fortunately, thanks to her rationality, the purchase funds did not exceed the limit.
The goods she brought to Zhejiang were more than enough to fill her entire 30-square-meter shop.
In addition, after we go back, we will also import a batch of textiles from my father's factory, and then the goods in the store will probably be piled up and sold.
Ji Wanmei raised her wrist and checked the time. It was almost 11:30. She could go back to the guesthouse to pack her things.
When she and Luo Chunyan walked out of the jewelry stall, they did not see Lei Tingjun.
Ji Wanmei asked, "Where is Lei Tingjun?"
Luo Chunyan: "I don't know. I just saw him standing at the door. How come he disappeared as soon as I turned around?"
The two waited at the door for a while before seeing Lei Tingjun walking over from the other side.
Ji Wanmei glanced at him and asked in confusion, "Where did you just go?"
Lei Tingjun said, "It's nothing, I just went to the restroom."
"Oh." Ji Wanmei didn't say anything more, only saying, "It's almost time, and we've collected all our goods. Now we need to go back to the guesthouse to pack our luggage. The train back to Pingquan County is at 4:30 this afternoon."
"Have you bought your train ticket yet?" Ji Wanmei asked Lei Tingjun.
Of course, the Thunder team hasn't made the purchase yet.
With such a tight schedule, even if he went to the ticket counter, he wouldn't be able to buy a hard seat; he'd probably have to get a standing ticket instead.
In that case, it's better to just buy the ticket after boarding the train.
These days, because security and ticket checks are not yet perfect, there are many people who evade fares.
Therefore, in order to deal with this phenomenon, there are usually ticket inspectors who will come up to check tickets after boarding the train.
If someone is found to be without a ticket, they will be required to buy one. If they refuse, they will be ordered to get off the train and may even be detained.
"Not yet, I can buy it at the station later," Lei Tingjun said.
Ji Wanmei frowned and said, "Anyway, there are still a few hours before we board the train. Why don't you go and buy your tickets now? Just in case there are still seats available."
When they came before, the Thunder Army had to stand.
Standing on a train for over twenty hours is really physically exhausting.
Ji Wanmei didn't want Lei Tingjun to have to stand like this for over twenty hours when he returned.
Lei Tingjun didn't really care. He was used to working the night shift at the factory, often working all night long.
Ji Wanmei simply didn't know that.
According to her understanding, she thought that standing tickets were a form of torture for Lei Tingjun, but in Lei Tingjun's opinion...
His tall stature of 1.85 meters, long legs, and robust physique that was a head taller than the average person made it even more uncomfortable for him to sit for more than twenty hours in that narrow, cramped, and hard chair with his legs bent.
But he was always willing to accept Ji Wanmei's concern.
Lei Tingjun said, "Alright, after I take you to the guesthouse, I'll wait for you at the train station."
Ji Wanmei nodded.
The group left the wholesale market. It was noon, and it was another bright and sunny day.
Li, the clerk, was probably getting impatient at the guesthouse. Ji Wanmei and the others had agreed to return before midnight.
After Lei Tingjun escorted them to the guesthouse, Ji Wanmei turned around and said goodbye to him.
Ji Wanmei said, "Lei Tingjun, take care of yourself. Find a place to have lunch first. Chunyan and I will probably eat with Officer Li. After you get to the train station, buy your ticket first, then find a place to rest. I think you've been tired these past two days."
Ji Wanmei's concern was hidden beneath her understated words.
Upon hearing this, Lei Tingjun felt a warm and comforting feeling in his heart, as if a soft feather was gently brushing against it.
Lei Tingjun smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. Take care of yourself too. I'll wait for you at the train station."
At that moment, Luo Chunyan felt that she was superfluous to be standing there.
After Lei Tingjun turned and left, Luo Chunyan sighed meaningfully, "Actually, after getting to know Lei Tingjun these past few days, I've found that he's not as bad as the rumors say. But..."
Luo Chunyan paused for a moment before continuing, "He's broke right now, so he can't be tough in front of you."
"Many men are like this; they seem honest and loyal when they have no money. But once they have money, their true nature is revealed."
Luo Chunyan didn't say this intentionally to sow discord between Ji Wanmei and Luo Chunyan; she genuinely felt that way.
She has a cousin who was like that. When she was young, she was considered the most beautiful girl in the village. At first, she found a husband who seemed to treat her well and was quite honest.
As a result, a few years after their marriage, with the financial support of his aunt's family, his uncle went out to do business and made a small fortune.
The husband, who had previously seemed honest and considerate, suddenly changed his tune, treating his aunt like a maid at home and having an affair with another woman.
That incident really shocked Luo Chunyan.
In her opinion, it's better to find a man who doesn't have much money and might turn bad if he becomes rich in the future.
It would have been better to find someone rich from the start.
Because men are bound to change anyway.
Ji Wanmei's family is so wealthy, and her father is a factory director with a high status.
Why bother with a poor guy like Lei Tingjun? If you end up with him, you'll just have to support him financially.
When a poor man becomes successful through his wife's family, he might turn his back on her and refuse to acknowledge her. That would be a complete loss, like losing both wife and army.
